I thin that the commom scenarios for multiple monitors is one video card with 2+ video outs or 1 PCI-express video card and 1+ PCI video cards.
What video cards have good prices in both situations?

For reference, this would be for Visual Studio 2008 with a fair amount of WinForms working with the VS Designer.
Given the same price bracket, would there be certain specs you look for in a development rig vs what one would get for a gaming machine?

I don't remember PNY making video cards, but then I noticed that there were some GeForce video cards that said PNY on them. I thought NVidia made GeForce. How good are those cards? Why does the box say PNY if NVidia makes them?

Regarding how good the cards are, you'll need to go hunting reviews.

If it turns out your not using both cards, you can check out Equalizer for parallel rendering, it's a great.

There are not really any recommended video cards, If you get yourself a descent graphics card X, and nearly every card can handle that.

My PCI-E card is an 8400GS and my onboard video is an HD4200. They both play movies without any slowdown. Will the movies look different? Will one picture look sharper than the other? I suspect that if the video cards can play the movies at full speed...

It's possible that color settings and such may differ card-to-card, but those should be adjustable by you.
By the file's encoding format, bitrate, resolution, etc, rather than by the video card.

I remember a while back people started talking about external video cards for laptops and such and now I rarely hear anything about them. So do they work or is it just unlikely that it could actually give a performance boost to computer games?

They are OK for largely static content only have the video card connected to the USB host controller and nothing else.
External video cards work well for text, basic graphics, etc.

I currently am running a setup of 1920 x 1080 on two monitors. I'm running a singular 8800 gts video card and am looking to upgrade. Where the 8800 used to be sufficient when my resolution was significantly lower it is now becomming a tad bit choppy when...

Hey,
So you're definitely running an inadequate video card for the set-up you're currently using.
By default! So you could buy one good dual-monitor card instead of two crappy cards.

GPU stands for graphics processing unit which is by definition the heart of a graphics card..
To start - GPGPU
Also, for the record, I don't think there is such a thing as non-GPU based graphic cards.
